yea it is fine,i probably shouldn't have risked my $100 graphics calculator thoe :slfg:

i did and it didn't matter if it was metal or a hand :rotf:

None of the other eggs survived so maybe

could only 3 eggs have been fertilized?

false alarm ,they are just normal Africans :tears: why on earth would there be smaller different colored eggs with heads and tails in her mouth with a batch of normal eggs?now the question is what are they?

3 ,two males and a female haha

well i just found my cuckoos on the bottom of the tank and the 40 rusty fry in the tumbler all dead &c:ry luckily the cuckoos were still alive so i chucked them back in the tumbler ,they have no eggs to eat now but i have brought some bbs today and have a holding yellow if i get desperate

i had a cuckoo fry in my azureas hold last week but they all died in my tumbler for some reason &c:ry i think they will spawn with just about everything :dunno:

cheers guys :thup: i have just borrowed another 210 litre tank and i am planning on separating the cuckoos and my red empress but the red empress have never even spawned as the male has only just started maturing everyone says use the haps and they spawn with haps in the wild but i have 13 decent sized rustys in need of a bigger tank and this brood was with a rusty so would it be stupid to consider useing them as hosts or go for the empress even though they havent spawned ? my azureas are not the best of holders and the red empress are larger anyway :dunno:

yea i am planning on it but quite a few of the eggs are infertile so i will need some brine shrimp when they have eaten all the other eggs .

i am in the process of setting one up for them lol! but obviously i don't need to haha! im stoked haha

i stripped a female rusty and got three tiny little cuckoos in amongst her eggs! hopefully they survive in the tumbler and i had better get some brine shrimp going!

i wondered why its came up with a error every time i tried to log on! :facepalm:

the bottom one is the only female

nice pics! that is quite a few holding yellows

cool! :thup:

that was the idea :thup: the only zebras i have are the afra and they have never cross bred with the rustys so far haha .i am going to have two 210 litre tanks side by side so i thought i would have the haps and the cuckoos in one and the yellows, afra and rustys in the other.i have been thinking about selling my afra for a while now ,maybe it is a good move even though i like them.

thats a little more than some thats heaps well done hopefully they will survive

thats cool mine have stopped breeding and i lost my back up male a couple of days ago :tears: but i plan on moving them ,my red empress and cuckoos into another tank in a week or so to hopefully get them breeding again.

thats good i was actually asking Ryan but good to know you have some too .

whats your problem?? nice pics and fish! how are your azureas going?

are you able to check them with a torch like chicken eggs?

well actually im 15 so there! haha

judging by the fins id say male but i don't keep them so i could be wrong, would venting be an option?
